Popis: Abstract The information on climatic condition is difficult to obtain, expensive, and time-consuming so as to make timely decision on agricultural activities. As a scientific effort, this study was conducted to assess the temporal changes and trends of rainfall and temperature, to know the performance of weather generator (WG) tools in capturing the temporal and spatial distribution of rainfall, maximum temperature (Tmax) and minimum temperature (Tmin) and to evaluate the performance of WG in simulating the observed rainfall, Tmax and Tmin by using statistical methods. Mann–Kendall's trend analysis revealed that rainfall had non-significant (P
